Thought I would check in and see how the other Michigander is doing. You are really consistent with your training!

Wanted to know where you get your black bean pasta from? The Whole Foods in Rochester does not carry it. The only place I have seen it is at the Living Foods store in East Lansing (which I would shop at when I went to visit my daughter when she was a student at MSU - but has since graduated and went off to Japan to teach English there! so I do not have a good excuse to go to that store - so far away).

Yes representing Michigan! I get the black bean pasta from a store in Brighton called natural view market. I have seen it at foods for living in lansing too! that store is awesome. bummer that your whole foods does not carry it I have also found it on amazon and they have other varieties like fettucine the only thing is you have to buy several packages which is actually probably a money saver in the long run it just seems like a lot to spend. good stuff though I like it even if it looks weird I dig it.
